Iowa Influenza Surveillance Network: Weekly Activity Report Week 7, February 20, 2016

The Iowa Influenza Surveillance Network (IISN) was established in 2004, though surveillance has been conducted at the Iowa Department of Public Health. Schools and long-term care facilities report data weekly into a Web-based reporting system. Schools report the number of students absent due to illness and the total enrolled. Long-term care facilities report cases of influenza and vaccination status of each case. Both passively report outbreaks of illness, including influenza, to IDPH.

Carles Ros i Hebrera. Col·loqui nou, graciós i entretengut, on se referixen les festes celebrades en la ciutat de València a la proclamació de son rei i senyor nòstron Fernando Sext, que Déu guard, en los dies 19, 20 i 21 d'agost del present any 1746 : Edició crítica i estudi

En aquest treball es presenta una edició crítica del col·loqui sobre la proclamació del rei Ferran VI. També s'explica la relació dels col·loquis i el teatre breu, temes, llocs de representació, destinatari final i la funció dels seus creadors i recitadors anomenats col·loquiers. A més, s'explica el context sociopolític en què es varen concebre i unes pinzellades sobre el seu autor i la seua producció literària en català.

Incidence and outcome of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy over 20 years of the Swiss HIV Cohort Study.

BACKGROUND: We investigated the incidence and outcome of progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy (PML) in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals before and after the introduction of combination antiretroviral therapy (cART) in 1996. METHODS: From 1988 through 2007, 226 cases of PML were reported to the Swiss HIV Cohort Study. By chart review, we confirmed 186 cases and recorded all-cause and PML-attributable mortality. For the survival analysis, 25 patients with postmortem diagnosis and 2 without CD4+ T cell counts were excluded, leaving a total of 159 patients (89 before 1996 and 70 during 1996-2007). RESULTS: The incidence rate of PML decreased from 0.24 cases per 100 patient-years (PY; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.20-0.29 cases per 100 PY) before 1996 to 0.06 cases per 100 PY (95% CI, 0.04-0.10 cases per 100 PY) from 1996 onward. Patients who received a diagnosis before 1996 had a higher frequency of prior acquired immunodeficiency syndrome-defining conditions (P = .007) but similar CD4+ T cell counts (60 vs. 71 cells/microL; P = .25), compared with patients who received a diagnosis during 1996 or thereafter. The median time to PML-attributable death was 71 days (interquartile range, 44-140 days), compared with 90 days (interquartile range, 54-313 days) for all-cause mortality. The PML-attributable 1-year mortality rate decreased from 82.3 cases per 100 PY (95% CI, 58.8-115.1 cases per 100 PY) during the pre-cART era to 37.6 cases per 100 PY (95% CI, 23.4.-60.5 cases per 100 PY) during the cART era. In multivariate models, cART was the only factor associated with lower PML-attributable mortality (hazard ratio, 0.18; 95% CI, 0.07-0.50; P < .001), whereas all-cause mortality was associated with baseline CD4+ T cell count (hazard ratio per increase of 100 cells/microL, 0.52; 95% CI, 0.32-0.85; P = .010) and cART use (hazard ratio, 0.37; 95% CI, 0.19-0.75; P = .006). CONCLUSIONS: cART reduced the incidence and PML-attributable 1-year mortality, regardless of baseline CD4+ T cell count, whereas overall mortality was dependent on cART use and baseline CD4+ T cell count.

Fact-Sheets zum Wandel der Schweizer Parteien : Ergebnisse aus dem Nationalfonds-Projekt ,,Die Schweizer Parteiorganisationen im letzten Drittel des 20. Jahrhunderts"

Das Nationalfonds-Projekt, aus dem die hier vorliegenden Ergebnisse stammen, befasst sich mit dem Wandel der Schweizer Parteien im letzten Drittel des 20. Jahrhunderts. Das Schwer- gewicht liegt bei den Parteiorganisation der Kantonalparteien. Untersucht wird die Frage, wie weit sich die Schweizer Parteien zu professionell geführten Wählerparteien entwickeln, die sich immer mehr von ihrer Basis entfernen. Das Projekt gibt Auskunft über die Ressourcen der Kantonalparteien und damit auch über ihre Möglichkeiten, die Politik aktiv mitzugestal- ten.
